According to Spotrac, the NBA's rookie scale contract means the No. 1 pick's deal is worth $66.9 million over the course of four years. It is quite the deal for Dybantsa, and he will look to live up to it for a team that has aspirations of competing in the Eastern Conference with Anthony Davis and Trae Young.

If he lives up to those expectations, he could be in contention for the Rookie of the Year in the first season of this new contract.
